Chapter 7: You Had One Job
Karakura Town, Kurosaki Clinic, Morning
"It all started when Sakura got hit by a car."
Sakura first thought she was dead and the grim reaper was taking her to heaven. That thought went quickly when gone away Sakura woke up with a sharp pain in her head. Dead people can't feel pain.
She tried to open her eyes but a bright light forced her to close them. Sakura opens her eyes again but slowly this time. Her vision slowly went back too normal and she realized she was in a hospital. The white walls, the blue cards, and the clean smell all pointed that out. Or she hoped so. Different worlds have different rules and cultures after all.
"Oh! You're awake," A young female's voice appears on her left. Sakura looked at the doorway to where the voice was coming from. It was a young girl wearing a nurse outfit. Herself look about 10-13, give or take. She has short light blonde hair, with short bangs hanging over the right side of her forehead. She also wore a red hair clip on the left side of her head. Her eyes are dark brown and had a soft look to them.
"You got hit by a car. But lucky for you, your friend brought you here." The girl informed her in an appealing tone of voice.
'How clumsy of me' Sakura thought to herself. And she calls herself a ninja. At this rate, she will be nowhere powerful enough to help her new and old friends. Maybe Sasuke was right and she was useless. She stops her thought process when she noticed the girl was looking at her with a questionable look in her eyes and she hasn't said a word to her besides just looking at her hands looking sad.
"Oh sorry! Just lost in my own thoughts here," Sakura apologized to the girl, as she rubs the of her head blushing a bit. 'Way a go Sakura. Now she thinks you're crazy!' She thought to herself. She looked around to see hoping to see where Edward was but much to her disappointment he wasn't there.
"Have you seen a boy around my age? Has blond hair? Golden eyes? Short but will throw a that huge tantrum if you ever call him that?" Just as Sakura said that she could hear Edward's voice down the hall.
"She awake yet!" Edward's voice was so full of concern her that it really did touch her heart.
The girl giggled, "Yeah he's here. I'll go and get him for you." The young nurse ran to the door, only to stop as if she forgot something.
"Oh!" The girl sudden said and turned around, "I'm Kurosaki Yuzu." She introduced herself.
"I'm Haruno Sakura." Sakura introduced herself, with a smile. Yuzu smile back at her before turning to leave in order to get Edward.
After a few second Edward came in with Yuzu. He had a worried look on his face, as his hands were shaking and his pupil were small. He went to Sakura's side followed by a dark-haired man wearing a white-lab-coated. 'He must be the doctor.' Sakura thought herself. Before she could take a good look at him, Edward hit her on the top of her head.
"You idiot!" Edward yelled at her in a brittle tone of voice. His face was flushed and his hands were in a fist form, shaking.
"You could have been killed! Why didn't you stop when I told you!" Edward snapped at her. Sakura knew it was her fault that she in this hospital like this, and Edward is only scolding
her out of concern. But her stubbornness and pride weren't having any of it.
"Well how was I was supposed to know what a car is?! Where I come from we don't anything like that running around the place." Sakura covers her mouth as soon as she realized what she just said. Oops; she wasn't supposed to reveal that she wasn't from around here. That will make things complicated. Edward seems to have the same train of thought, as his eyes were widened in shock and quickly turned to the doctor who had a questionable look on his face.
"You...don't know what a car is?" The doctor raises an eyebrow at them. Sakura was thinking of an answer but Edward beat her to the punch.
"Well, you see sir. Sakura here come from a country that doesn't have much technology. We were pen pals and she wanted my country's technology first hand. So I got here just today, but I guess she got little too excited and run into the streets. And that's when she got hit by the car." He lied to the doctor, with a straight face.
The doctor was silent for a few moments, and Sakura and Edward were starting to get worried. Did the lie not work? But then their worry turned into confusion when the doctor starts crying. "To want to see how technology work in our country and only got hurt by it. It's-" Sudden he burst into tears, "It's so cruel!"
'This guy is emotional.' Sakura and Edward had the same thought as sweatdrops from the back of their heads as they watch the doctor crying.
Sakura turned to Edward when she was sure the doctor wasn't looking at them and whispered into his ear, "You let this guy heal me?" She said in a deadpan tone of voice.
Edward just gives her a deadpan stare and whispered back, "I had to get help and this was the closest clinic I could find. I didn't know the doctor was this." He glances back at the doctor, "emotional."
Sudden the doctor's head turned to Edward so fast that Edward felt whiplash just look at him, "You should have kept a better eye on your friend here! She was lucky she only got a bump on the head and a dislocated shoulder. It could have been a lot worse if the driver was going fast." The doctor told him.
Edward looked down, his brows folded. He opened his mouth but stop and, he looked at Sakura, his expression softens. He clearly was worried about her and blamed himself for what happened.
Sakura couldn't let Edward be blamed for her stupid mistake, "Don't blame him, sir." Both the doctor and Edward looked at her.
"It's my fault I got hurt. Not Edward. I was the would go on ahead without him" She gulped shaking her head, "So don't blame Edward, sir. If anyone is to blame, is me and me alone." Sakura bowed her head.
Edward looked at her with a small smile on his face. Which Sakura gave one back. Friends stick together after all.
The doctor bust out into tears again, "What a cute couple!" That got them both Sakura and Edward fell over in with their mouths open in shock. Once they got over their shock, Sakura and Edward both glared at the doctor and they both shouted at the same time.
"Me with her?!"
"Me with him?!"
"As if!" They both glared at each other's after they finish their sentences. The doctor looks back and forward between the two wondering who's going to make the first move. Then somebody else stepped into the room, causing Edward and Sakura to stop glaring at each other and look at the newcomer.
"Is everything alright here?" Questioned the newcomer. The most distinguishing feature on the newcomer was his spiky orange hair. He was also fairly tall, had a lean-built young man with peach skin and brown eyes. He frowns, but from what Sakura could tell he wasn't mad. In fact, he was just annoyed.
"Dad, you're not bothering the patients again. Are you?" The orange-haired man glared at the doctor-his father.
"My son! How could think so cruelly of me?!" The doctor cried out in disbelief.
The newcomer just gave his father a deadpan stared and answered, "Yes."
This caused the doctor to bust out into tears and cry out in shock, "My own flesh and blood have betrayed me!" In response, the newcomer hit his dad on the back of his head.
"Don't say stupid things!" Barked the newcomer. Which cause the father to punch his son in the face. Soon a fight broke out between them.
Sakura felt a headache creeping in as father and son were fighting. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Edward pinch the bridge of his nose and sigh. Seems he too was getting sick of this. After a few seconds of fighting both Sakura and Edward just had enough of family fighting.
"Will you the both shut up and get the hell out of here?!" Sakura and Edward screamed at the duo. Father and son just look shocked at this and then saw the mad glare from both Sakura's and Edward's eyes. Well, the doctor seems to notice. The son, on the other hand, glared right back at them and was about to tell them off before the doctor stopped him. The son raised one eyebrow at his father's actions, the father just shook his head in response. As if to say it's not worth it.
"We'll leave you two alone now. If you need any help just call me; Isshin or my son Ichigo here." He told them, grinning as he swings arm around his son lead him out of the room.
The sounds of the father's and sons arguing grow fainter and fainter until it stopped. Now that they were alone, Edward turned to Sakura and told her, "Ok, this is what's going on..."
Karakura Town, Afternoon
Edward was walking down the street with Ichigo and his sisters. In each of their arms were bags of groceries. While the Kurosakis were nice enough to heal Sakura even though they didn't have enough money to cover her bill and no place to stay, the family helped out the newcomers by letting them stay at their house. At least until they could get back on their feet that is. But feeling guilty about being basically a freeloader was not helped by the fact Ichigo and Karin made comments about it. Because of that Edward decides to help the family out.
Isshin and Yuzu already were already warming up to him and Sakura. Karin and Ichigo, on the other hand, didn't believe them. Karin seemed to not care, but Edward had a feeling she did after she glared at him when she was sure he wasn't looking at her. Ichigo made very clear that if he or Sakura were a threat to his friend then he'll strike them down without a second thought. Which Edward had respect for, he too knew the value of family and wanted to protect them from dangers.
Edward was so lost in his thought that he didn't notice that Yuzu was walking beside him now, "So Edward," Yuzu said knocking off Edward's train of thoughts. "How do you like Karakura Town so far?" She asked him in an appealing tone of voice.
Edward thinks about how he should answer Yuzu's question. With the time Edward spent at Karakura Town, his friend got hurt, then living with this crazy family, and said family guilting trip him into working for them.
"It's... nice so far," Edward answered her with a forced smile. Yuzu didn't seem to notice and smiled at him. She started talking about all the interesting things you could do in Karakura Town.
Finally, Karin pulled her twin sister away from Edward.
"Yuzu leave him alone. I hardly think that Edward wants to go exploring without his friend coming along." Karin told Yuzu. Noticing that Edward wasn't paying any attention to what Yuzu was saying and figure to give the poor guy a break.
Yuzu looked down and away from Edward in shame of herself for thinking about that, "Oh right. Sorry, Ed." She apologized to him.
"It's ok," Edward said, gave Yuzu a small smile. It would take Sakura a couple of weeks to get back her feet. But with her chakra, she can her feet in no time but after talking about they debating about it for a while, and then they come up with an idea that Sakura will use her chakra little by little during a week so that was they get early to search for the others. They just have to make an excuse that Sakura was just fast at healing
Boom!
Sudden a loud booming noise cause the group to jump. Ahead of them, in the sky, a black smoke was flowing up in the sky. Leaving the once peaceful atmosphere to a tense one.
"W-what just happened?" Edward demand, looking at the family. Before Yuzu or Karin said anything to him, Ichigo leaves his bags on the street.
"You guys go home. I'll check it out." Ichigo called over his shoulder as he races to where the smoke was. His sisters looked at his running form of alarm and fear.
"Ichigo waits-" Yuzu called out for her brother but he was already gone. She looked down but then her sister put her hand on her shoulder.
"Don't worry Yuzu, Ichigo will come back soon," Karin concluded picking the bags that Ichigo left behind. While Karin was worry about her brother as much as her sister, she knows that Ichigo can handle this himself.
Edward, on the other hand, had no idea what causes that explore, or if Ichigo really should be going there. So he did what any normal person who does. He ran after the person who is probably going to get himself hurt and bring him back to safety.
"Edward!" It was Karin that shouted in surprise this time. As Edward left his bags with the girl and took off after Ichigo.
Edward called over his shoulder as he ran to where Ichigo was heading, "I'll check on him! Just in case!" With that, he disappeared into the shadows of the buildings.
Yuzu bite her lip, "You think they're going to be ok?" She asked her sister.
Karin sighed, "Don't worry Yuzu, Ichigo is strong so he can care for himself. As for Edward, he seems to have a good head on his shoulders and even if he gets into trouble Ichigo will help him out." She glared at the bags that her brother and Edward left behind to her. "But They better makes it up to us."
Karakura Town, Shopping District, Afternoon.
By the time Edward got to where the smoke was almost everyone in the area was out. Only people who come in, where trained professions who held these type of accidents or people who so lachesism that they can't help themselves. And Edward was one of those fools that was going into the chaos.
Bricks were scatted on the street, with tables and chairs overturned. People were running and screaming. In the center of it all was a monster with a white mask on its face. It was walking toward the people, licking its mouth Before Edward can do anything, Ichigo sudden appears in front of the monster with a whoosh sound and slash the monster across the chest with a huge sword.
"Ichigo! What the hell are you doing?!" Edward shouted at the other. This act causes Ichigo to almost trip as he circles around the monster and looked back at Edward in shock.
"You can see me?" Ichigo asked Edward as if he wasn't supposed to see him even if he staying there in broad daylight. (But if a normal person saw this. It looks like Edward was talking to himself here.) He dodged a fist that the monster threw at him. That move left Ichigo an open to use. He swings that big sword and clops off the monster's hand, with no problems.
Splat!
The monster roared in pain, and where his hand was as the wound was bleeding all over the place. Ichigo ignored this and turned to Edward with narrowed eyes.
"What the seven hells are you doing here?!" Ichigo scowled at him. The monster charged at Ichigo, but he disappeared with whoosh sound and slash the monster across the back, knocking it down with a thump sound.
"What am I doing? What are you doing?!" Edward challenged Ichigo as he walking toward him. The monster tried to get up but Edward quickly punches it in the head as he walked past it. The monster's eyes rolled back to its head and laid back down.
"Where did you get that outfit and sword from. And what the hell is this thing?" Edward asked him.
Before Ichigo could answer him, the monster sudden raise up and grab Edward.
"Will you both of you shut up and stop acting like I'm not here?!" The monster roared at them. It started to tighten his grip on Edward, which is making it harder for him to breath. He was so close that he could smell the monster's odor which smells like rotten meat.
"Now Shinigami," It sneered at Ichigo who glared right back at it, "You're going to let go and I won't eat this little pipsqueak here." It threatened him.
'Pipsqueak,' Edward snap up as that word slip past the monster's lips. Whatever it wants from Ichigo didn't matter. What does matter is showing this mask freak what's good! He felt the monster's grip loosen up a bit as he was making threats to Ichigo and Edward slip two of his arms free. Quickly he claps his hands together and touches auto metal his arm. Blue lightning flashes so brightly that everyone had to close their eyes and when it clears up Edward right arm had a blade an attached it. He stabs the monster's risk, which caused the monster to yelped dropped Edward and then he quickly jumped away from the monster.
Ichigo took this chance to dart forward and slice the monster's mask right in the middle with his sword. The monster made one last scream and it disappeared. The Ichigo turned to Edward with a glare.
"You better explain what the hell you did." He advised in a tight tone of voice.
Edward glared back, "You first."
They glared at each other waiting for the other to make a move.
Karakura Town, Kurosaki Clinic, Night
"And that's what happened," Edward and Ichigo explained their stories to Sakura. Edward stands from right on the side of Sakura's bed while Ichigo stands in the front of it(with a normal outfit.) Sakura closed her eyes, fold her arms together and let out an 'hmm' sound as think about what the boys told her. After a few moments of silence, Sakura broke it with a question.
"Can you repeat that again?" She asked them. This caused Edward and Ichigo to fell down in comedy fashion.
"What didn't you understand?" Edward inquired in disbelief.
"Yeah, we explain everything clearly to you!" Ichigo agreed with Edward.
Sakura let out a huff in annoyance, "No you didn't. You guys just come in here and you told me that Ichigo here has something to tell us." She glared at Edward. "And then Ichigo said me and Edward got to come clean." She glared at Ichigo who looked away. "And then you both start talking at the same time because both of you don't want the other to go first." Both Edward and Ichigo shifted their feet and both of them blush in embarrassment.
"Well-I-um," Both of them stammered, which made Sakura even madder. Then finally she brought her fist down on the arms bend.
Crack!
Both Ichigo and Edward jump back in surprise. Ichigo looks at the arms bend and notice and dent in the metal and her fist wasn't damaged at all. What the actual hell?
She took a deep breath and sight, "Ok you," She pointed at Ichigo, "You go first."
"No way! You guys living under my fa-" Ichigo stopped at mid-sentence as Sakura give the evilest glare ever.
He gulped, "Fine. I'll talk." Ichigo hissed.
Ichigo told them that monster that Edward and he fought was a Hollow. A spirit that stays in the human world for too long and becomes a monster who eat other souls and humans. A Soul Reaper's job was to hunt down Hollows and to also help souls move on to the afterlife.
"And that's it," Ichigo said after finishing his story. There a couple of seconds of silence between the group. With Sakura and Edward thinking about what Ichigo has told them and Ichigo look at the both of them. Wondering what's going on in their minds.
"Makes sense." Sakura comment and Edward nodded.
Ichigo was taking back by this, "Wait, what? You guys just accept this?" His eyes wielded in surprise.
Both Edward and Sakura tilted their heads Did they said something weird?
"Is something wrong?" Sakura asked, narrowing her eyes.
"It's just...well I thought you guys wouldn't believe me," Ichigo answered to them. Acatalepsy was written all over his face.
"Well, I literally fought that Hollow you were talking about," Edward replied with a matter-of-fact tone of voice.
"And I have seen weirder stuff in my world. So Hollows and Soul Reapers are not hard to believe." Sakura pointed out, crossing her arms.
"Your world?" Ichigo questioned them, narrowed his eye a bit.
Sakura sighed and pitch her nose, "You might want to sit down for this." Ichigo raises one eyebrow but sits down anyway.
Sakura explains to Ichigo there are multiple worlds out there and how she and Edward from two very different worlds. How they got here on a gummi ship and how Conner crushes it along kidnapping their friends.
Ichigo just stared at them with a wide eye, "So," After a few moments of silence he finally starts saying something, "You're telling that that you guys are from another world that was overrun by this 'darkness'." He said, using air quotes on the word darkness.
Sakura and Edward nodded.
"And that some guy name Conner destroyed your ship and kidnap your friends, with a help from some chipmunks you escape."
They nodded again.
"And they're somewhere in this world but you have no idea where they might be."
They nodded again.
There were a few moments of silence before Ichigo broke it, "I don't believe in you!" With that he slams his foot to the ground, causing lose items to shake.
Edward and Sakura just stared at him in disbelief and lower their eyebrows. Edward was the first one to make a move by grabbing Ichigo's front shirt and drag him to his eye level.
"What? Didn't think I call your bullcrap." Ichigo challenged him, grabbing his hand that was on his shirt and pull it off.
"What do you mean 'what'? Sakura asked, confused by his actions. They told him the truth like they wanted. And yeah is farfetched but so was his story and they believe him!
"Yeah sure there may be some other worlds out there but a darkness that destroying them and people with strong enough hearts can live through it and transported them to other worlds?" Ichigo objected, pressing his lips into a frown.
"Even if that was all true. Which I highly doubt. You guys have no evidence what you guys claim to have." Ichigo told them.
Both Sakura looked down, brows furrowed. How are they going to prove this one? As some sort of god was listening to them, they heard a familiar squeaky voice called out from the open window.
"There you guys are!" A familiar high-pitched called for Sakura and Edward. They turned to the window where the voice was coming from and sure enough there were two chipmunks there.
"Chip! Dale!" Sakura gasped in surprise but quickly smile at the brothers. She runs over there, with her cast that was on her arm, leading down to their level.
"How did you guys get here?" Asked Edward as run toward the window with Sakura. Not that he was graceful or anything. But seriously where were they?
"After the ship crash, we were in a small park without you guys around. We went looking for you but we couldn't ask anybody because of the world order. But we did find you when we passing by this house." Dale explained. The trio blush realized how loud they were. (1)
"Well, we glad to see you," Edward said, giving Ichigo a smug expression. Which cause Ichigo to look away, blush.
"What's with them?" Chip asked.
"Well, you see..." Sakura begins.
Haelth's mind, Night
"And that's the whole story," Edward explained. Haelth cover her mouth holding back a laugh, while the shadow creature (he still doesn't know what to call them.) just look at them with an amused look in their eyes.
"Looks like we weren't the only ones that couldn't keep the secret." Haelth laughed to the spirit.
"To be fair I didn't think you guys could have to keep that big of a secret for that long. But I would think of less thought you kids can keep a secret for more than a day." The spirit rolled their eyes. Haelth shriek back but Sakura and Edward held their ground.
"Hey! You tried to do that when you throw into a world without any knowledge about it!" Edward pointed his finger at the spirit's chest.
The spirit calmly waves them off, "I know it's hard. But you need to be more careful! Your headstrong attitude may come back to hurt you one day." The spirit lectured. Edward presses his lips together, not saying a word. Not because he couldn't think of a way to say anything back or didn't have courage. (He already come with so many insults and words to poke holes in their logic) No, it was because Sakura beat him to the punch.
"He only told Ichigo the truth because he caught fight a Hollow with his powers and he only did that because he was worry about Ichigo. Edward had to do something and I would do the same thing if I was in his place." Sakura told the spirit off. Edward felt grateful for Sakura defecting him, so he pats her shoulder in a sign that was grateful for her. Sakura turned to him and gave a small smile.
She peeks out between Edward and Sakura. "So yeah. What's this about training?" Haelth said trying to breaking up this little fight they were having. (And to get the story back on track.)
The spirit looked away seemly embarrass and coughed, "Yes, well. Like I said because your minds are linked so you can visit each other dreams and teach some of your technique to each other. Like I said I can help you adopted new power sources and transfer them into the energy source you used to. This may you having new powers and losing some depending on the world you're on. But as for learning how to use those powers is up to you. You can always use the same power as my host or other guardians. So long as isn't a bloodline or special power that only a certain person can use like Sora's keyblade. But you can use his magic if he was a guardian. Plus, this will get the time to talk and get to know one and another. Build up your bond. Sometimes my host and their guardians can read each other minds even if they're in other words. Of course that a rarity because you have really trust someone to let into their minds." The spirit explained. The trio eyes look surprised. Can they really can do those things?
"Why can't you pass bloodline power to other guardians?" Sakura asked them.
"And why is Keyblade so special?" Edward added, raising one eyebrow.
The spirit shook their head, "I can't adopt a power is passed down from offspring to offspring. That thing is beyond my control. As for the keyblade, it's a weapon that pretty much has a mind of its own. It chose its owner and they the only ones that can use it." They explained to Sakura and Edward.
Edward narrowed his eyes, "What can a weapon have a mind of its own? Last time I check Sora's keyblade wasn't alive and talking to us." He pointed out.
"Yeah, Stranger that's kinda far out there," Haelth add.
"Stranger?" Edward raises an eyebrow.
Haelth's face reddens at a bit, "Yeah, that's what I'm calling them until I can think of a good name." She explained.
The spirit pitches their nose, "I told you kid it's not that impartment kid." If the spirit thinks that it was going to make her stop then they were wrong.
"I have to call you something! Just saying 'spirit' or 'hey you' isn't really going to cut it!" She pouted.
"I have to agree," Sakura step forward, "If we are to work as a team then at less know for a name, and because you don't then let us make a name for you." Edward nodded in approved.
Haelth smiles at Sakura and turned to the spirit with a smile on her face.
"Fine, have it your way," The spirit sighed, but a ghost of a smile did appear on their faces.
"Now we got that out of the way. Let's train so we can beat the darkness and reclaim our homes back!" Edward proposed. Sakura smiled approved at his choice of word. While Haelth gives him a pointed look and crosses her arms.
"And find my friends," Haelth added.
"That too."
"And stop Conner." The stranger also added.
"Of course." Edward acknowledged although he needs more knowledge about what's going on between Stranger and Conner.
"So anyway let's start with training." Stranger said, trying to get things back on track. "I want you all to practice some fighting moves at each other. We need to know where your strength lays and what your weakness is." They explained to them.
Sakura and Edward nodded. It makes sense to them. Haelth looks nervous with shifting her feet around but understand as well. From what Edward understand, Haelth has the less combat experience than the rest of them. But even then she going through this because this because her friends are in danger. She earns some Edward respect because of that, but she needs to pull her own weight if she wants survival. So Edward and Sakura are not going to pull any punches.
Edward and Sakura turned to Haelth, "Well then let's get started" Haelth gulped nervously and summon her spear. As soon as that happens Sakura and Edward attack.
Hueco Mundo, Forest of Menos, Night
Little did the group know about it, a group of hollows gathering around. Not too far away from where Sora's group camping out. They come in so many shape and sizes, but the largest out of all of them were hollow called Nicolas.
He was large jackal-like hollow, with cold yellow eyes. Adjuchas class hollow as a show that his body was cover in bone armor then the usual black body bone-like that any old hollow has. His paws shaped like draggers. And for some odd reasons he had a bone like bat wings on his back. But they weren't made for flying, they were made for grabbing prey and pinning them down so he used his teeth and claws to stab and cut them to death. There was the only problem that he has at the moment. And that is damaged right paw. Which look crooked.
He got it while trying to ambushed Ashido Kano when he was fighting a bunch of Gillian type hollows. Nicolas thought that this would be an easy kill and he'll be the hollow that finally he that brought down the immortal soul reaper. But Ashido didn't live for years Hueco Mundo by pure luck. He killed the Gillians quickly and injured Nicolas in the process.
Usually, that would be a death sentence to a Hollow. In fact, some Menoes tried to kill him a while ago. Lucky for Nicolas they weak and stupid Menoes. So when he kills and eaten their leader. Which pretty made him into the leader of the small Menoes pack. So Nicolas plans on using these Menoes to get his revenge on Ashido. He also gathers up other hollows that had a bone to pick with Ashido for one reason or another.
Nicolas and other high ranking Hollows in their little pack sit in a circle. They were eating some low ranking Hollows that disappoint them on their last hunt. Every time a piece of meat fall to the ground, a Meno who walk up slowly and when the high rank looks away to steal that small piece of meat. Of course when he got back with it the other Menoes who beat up that Menos steal that meat. One small Meno that was approach higher ranks of hollows walk slow and with his head bow so low that he was almost touching the ground.
"I have some new regarding Ashido." The Meno said to them, look as meek as he possibly can. One wrong move and Nicolas and other Adjuchas will kill and eat him.
"Speak up!" Nicolas ordered, causing the Meno to stink back at his loud voice.
"We spotted a bunch of Gillians attacking these other humans you see, and Ashido came around to save them." Before the Meno can continue farther, one of the higher up Adjuchas cut him off.
"Are you sure those were humans? And not a soul reapers or plus? (2) No human can come in Hueco Mundo on their own." The Adjuchas question him. This made the pack worried. If another soul reaper was here, then killing Ashido will be harder to pull off.
The Meno turned his gaze toward the Adjuchas and shook his head, "We don't think so, sir. They didn't wear the usual outfits that other the soul reaper has. They can't be pluses either because they don't have a chain on their chest." (*) The Meno told him. This put the pack at ease before wonder just who these group of strangers are.
"A hollow must have taken them into Hueco Mundo for a meal and Ashido must have saved them." One of the other Adjuchas comment. Before the other Adjuchas could challenge that theory, Nicolas cut them off.
"That group don't matter. Humans are weak against Hollows. They are not a threat." Nicolas told them, "What does matter if the Meno find where Ashido finds his hideout. He's a bigger threat to us hollows." The other Adjuchas glared at him but didn't say anything. Nicolas was right; he humans really don't matter really. What does matter is where Ashido little hiding spot is located.
"Yes, we did leaders! We actually find the bastard's hideout!" Meno told Nicolas, proud of what he and his friends have done.
"You make sure you weren't spotted right?" Nicolas glared at the Meno.
The Meno shrink back in fear, "O-of course not a leader! We make sure we weren't spotted and keep our spiritual level low so we won't be found." He stuttered, trying to calm down his fear.
Nicolas smirk, "Good. Now that we know where Ashido's hideout is, we can launch the ambush!" The pack cheered at this.
"Nicolas, should we wait until we get more allies?" One of the Adjuchas questioned. Nicolas shakes his head, in frustration. He didn't like to be questioned. But he can't kill the other Adjuchas that would make lose his allies that he works so hard to get.
"Because we don't have time to look for more allies! We already give out a word that we are going to kill Ashido for months now. So everyone in this area had a chance. Plus, we got little time to wait around before Ashido decides to move his hideout again." He explained to other Adjuchas.
He closed his eyes, "No. We need to attack now before he has a chance to flee." Nicolas opened his eyes, glaring at those who would question. His logic was solid. Ashido change hideout a lot and they did miss their chance to attack last time.
No question Nicolas because they know he was right. One brave Meno asked Nicolas, "Do we attack tonight Nicolas?"
Nicolas waves his paw, "No. Tomorrow after he leaves his hideout we set up our traps and then," He jumps on the one of the bigger rock in the area and declared, "WE ATTACK!"
1-Sakura, Edward, and Ichigo are loud people. Just watch some scenes in their animes. You see what I'm talking about
2-Pluses are regulars souls in the Bleach world.
